Top Ten Tuesday: Books With my Favorite Tropes
In my year and two months of blogging, I have come to discover some tropes that I absolutely love. And that is what we will be looking at today. I broke this list off into a few different tropes and gave some recommendations for each. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl where there is a topic and you make a list that best fits it. Today’s topic is Books With Your Favorite Trope/Theme.

My Favorite Quotes From Books | aka things characters said that pull at my heartstrings
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. Sorry for not posting yesterday, none of my posts were close to being done because school got in the way of everything. But then I got a great idea for a different post and immediately started working on it. I was talking to a family friend the other day and she was looking for quotes on happiness. I will admit, the majority of quotes I note down aren’t exactly happy. They’re either very sad or very deep and emotional, often centering around a theme of the book. That conversation gave me the idea for this post! I will be listing some of…

Double Review: We Are Not Free by Traci Chee and The Awakening Storm by Jaimal Yogis & Vivian Truong | A Heartfelt Story of WW2 and an Entertaining MG Fantasy
Hey, everyone! It’s the first review of 2022! I haven’t done a book review in little while; I noticed that I’ve started doing fewer reviews because I’ve discovered so many other book-related posts in the year I’ve been blogging. But book reviews are still pretty much the core of my blog. Today, I’ll be reviewing two books: We Are Not Free by Traci Chee and The Awakening Storm by Jaimal Yogis and Vivian Truong. The books are very different from each other, with the first being a historical fiction about the Japanese incarceration camps, while the latter is a fantasy involving dragons and unpredictable villains. I’m reviewing We Are Not…

Christmas Songs Book Tag
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. I apologize for disappearing for two weeks. Final exams were last week and they definitely took their toll this year. Luckily, my last day was Thursday and I’m on winter break now, so I’ll have more time for blogging! I know Monday isn’t normally a day I post, but I’ve been gone, so I figured that I would go ahead and post this. I’m not doing Blogmas this year, but I still wanted to do a seasonal post for the holidays. So today I am doing the Christmas Songs Book Tag! And also ignoring all the other tags I have to do.…
